This is my code
$url = 'http://www.wikipedia.com'; // URL WITH HTTP
$hurl = str_replace("http", "https", $url); // URL WITH HTTPS
$urlheads = get_headers($url, 1);
$surlheads = get_headers($hurl, 1);
$urlx = false;
$surlx = false;
foreach ($urlheads as $name => $value)
{
if ($name === 'Location')
{
$urlx=$value;
}
else{
}
}
print_r($urlx);
And this is error I'm getting:
Warning: get_headers(): Peer certificate CN=`*.wikipedia.org' did not match expected CN=`www.wikipedia.com' in....
Warning: get_headers(): Failed to enable crypto in....
Warning: get_headers(https://www.wikipedia.com): failed to open stream: operation failed in .....
Array ( [0] => http://www.wikipedia.org/ [1] => https://www.wikipedia.org/ )
Why is this happening and what is proper way to get headers from https page without errors (without curl). Also, when I try on some other https site everything is ok
The issue is down to the server certificate being presented as a wildcard * so it can allow all sub-domains under the same certificate, but for some strange reason the wildcard * is used literally during the SSL verify leading to failure. To get around this, use stream_context_set_default() to set the SSL verification as false.
stream_context_set_default( [
'ssl' => [
'verify_peer' => false,
'verify_peer_name' => false,
],
]);
$url = 'https://www.wikipedia.com'; // URL WITH HTTPS
$headers = get_headers($url, 1);
var_dump($headers);
